Stronger with each tear – Mary J. Blige
Not more than six months since its initial release, Mary J Blige’s disappointingly bland, underperforming new album gets a re-release with half a dozen new tracks. It’s still a mixed bag, but at least the tempo’s picked up this time around. Album track Each Tear becomes a soulful duet with our own Vanessa Amorosi, while City On Fire is an electro corker. But the collection is bookended by two misjudged Led Zeppelin covers, making for uneven listening.
